Verdict

EASTSIDE DIAMOND (7) has enjoyed the transition to dirt track racing with two wins from her last three starts at Port Augusta. She's drawn well and gets in with no weight after the claim. She can race handy and looks the horse to beat. SANDSATION (2) has a brilliant record at this track and will appreciate getting back here third-up after a lengthy break. Draws low and looks a threat. Including KINDRA PARK (5), who did enough fresh, and SAMANTH (8), who will find this easier than recent outings, in wider plays.

Second-up. First-up after three months 5th of 13 at Balaklava Bm56 on July 9 over 1050m, slow going 1.2 len behind Miss Gabbiano carrying 56kg at $18. Previously second-up made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Morphettville 4yo+ Cl1 on December 13 over 1050m, 1.5 len behind Fine Future carrying 58kg at $9.50. Is a definite threat in this line-up despite a bad draw.

Verdict
Mare back from a spell of four months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last preparation fourth of 8 at Alice Springs 0 - 66 March 29 over 1100m, 5 len behind Great Gust with 55kg at $9.50. First up last campaign third of 11 at Alice Springs 0 - 62 March 22 over 1100m, 1.2 len behind Down The Wicket carrying 57kg at $31. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Everything points to a big return.
